Vae Victis

The fork, the fork, the fork in the road The crossroads I find myself at again Fear has no home, no hold, no hand in this Relentless spirit fed by the need to reinvent Today our souls Tomorrow the world Your corpse, my ladder Vae, Vae, Vae Victis Woe to, the conquered Woe to, woe to you The failing of, the failing of the right The faux life you can not bear to believe I ride the backbeat like a viper, smarter Looking down at me your defenses follow Please under, underestimate me It fuels the reactor within Focus on the horizon and All the burning buildings lose their glare Your corpse, my ladder Vae, Vae, Vae Victis Woe to, the conquered Woe to, woe to you Vae, Vae, Vae Victis If I can't change the world I'll change myself Redesign based on knowledge of the past Stronger from, that which only wounded Equipped to exploit the weakness inherit The path of least resistance holds no interest At war with the failings of my own flesh So sure I'm meant to be this way, this man Despite doubt telling me, how wrong I am Feet don't fail me now If I go I remember I was born ready to die Hold firm Hold fast Choose this path and never Look back Your corpse, my ladder Vae, Vae, Vae Victis Woe to, the conquered Woe to, woe to you Your corpse, my ladder Vae, Vae, Vae Victis Vae, Vae, Vae Victis Today our souls Tomorrow the world Your corpse, my ladder Vae, Vae, Vae Victis Woe to, the conquered Woe to, woe to you Your corpse, my ladder Vae, Vae, Vae Victis Woe to, the conquered Woe to, woe to you
